Horoscope for January 22, 2012

By Bernice Bede Osol

In the approaching months, don't let it dismay you if you have to shoulder more career-related responsibilities than usual. With the additional work will come more rewards, such as acclaim, promotion and a fatter paycheck.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your possibilities for success could be severely impaired if you start jumping to conclusions. Once you get off course, it won't be easy to find your way back on track.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you're presently indebted to a friend, don't wait until she or he starts asking for repayment. Save yourself a lot of embarrassment by letting your pal know when you can start the reimbursement.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Whether or not you want it, your associates will have a strong influence on how the day turns out for you. If you're smart, you won't hang out with a bunch of losers.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Obligations that normally wouldn't be yours could be dumped in your lap. Don't turn this into something worse than it already is by making mountains out of molehills.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- There's a chance you could run into one of your least favorite people, in what would otherwise be a most convivial setting. Don't let this party-pooper ruin your good times.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The slightest spark could ignite a volatile issue between you and your mate, if you are edgy and explosive. Once an argument is introduced, it could metastasize frighteningly. Keep a cool head and a long fuse.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Refrain from unduly criticizing the work of another, because it will only cause hard feelings. In fact, the person might be so devastated that he or she will never try the same thing again.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you haven't been managing your resources too wisely lately or are still broke from the holidays, you might not have the funds to participate in doing something fun with friends.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Any restrictions you are experiencing aren't due to the persons with whom you're now involved, so don't take things out on them. Grin and bear your pain alone.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If the world is a bit too gloomy for you, redirect your attention onto others instead of dwelling exclusively on your own self-inflicted pain and thwarted interests.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you're still operating on a stringent budget, don't start piling things on your credit cards just to keep up with friends. You'll only prolong your predicament.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Meaningful objectives might not be too easy to accomplish right at the moment. In order to achieve them, it'll require far more effort than you're likely to expend.
